I use Stylus and this stylesheet: https://userstyles.org/styles/22794/a-dark-hacker-news Works great for me. I use dark themes via Stylus for most of the common websites I visit like HN, GitHub, StackOverflow, etc. All other websites that cause me to squint I just toggle Dark Reader: https://darkreader.org/

Same here. I have been using Dracula theme for HN for over a year. Absolutely love it.

Would love to see this available natively here on HN. The last dark mode request thread I recall garnered 780 points: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23197966

As cool as new features would be, I sort of love the HN approach to feature creep (or even just feature addition, as distinct from "creep"). It's such a welcome change compared to other websites and apps.

It’s also one of the things I value highly.

The other is the better signal/noise ratio.

Is that like GreaseMonkey ?

If you like this you can also try Dark Reader, available as an extension for Chrome and Firefox. It'll make every website render in dark mode.

I used to have this extension, until I noticed the tiniest changes to pages even when the extension was "disabled". Ironically, I distinctly remember looking for the dark/light mode switch on hackmd.io and couldn't find it. Only when I uninstalled the extension did the whole page become usable again.

Generally I like the extension though, I still use it on my phone.

I find it offensive there's no dark mode. It's discrimination against people with a vision disability. It's a small and insignificant change on their part, could be made in 5 mins.
